To further understand displacement based seismic theory of building structures, the seismic performance evaluation using capacity spectrum method related to damping is carried out for the reinforced concrete frame-shear wall model structure of a thermal power main plant. By comparing with time-history analysis results, it can be seen that some problems such as equivalence of multi-degree-of-freedom system and value of equivalent damping ratio in capacity spectrum method remains to be further investigated. Force and displacement response of structures and plastic hinges position of all members could be obtained through nonlinear push-over analysis after determining the top displacement; weak parts and damage pattern of structures could also be easily found out by this method. At last, research shows that dynamic time-history analysis can be replaced by static push-over analysis, which is regarded as an exact seismic performance evaluation method by contrast.

PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to study the dynamic characteristics and seismic performance of the composite open-web grid floor structure.Design/methodology/approachStudied by using mode-superposition response spectrum method and time history analysis method.FindingsThe results show that the vertical mode-superposition response spectrum method is close to the time history analysis method. The floor has strong seismic performance, and the deflection and internal force are not large under vertical seism. The vertical seismic action suggested that 10% of the representative value of gravity load should be used to ensure the safety of the structure.Originality/valueIn the design, the mid-span section should be properly strengthened or the variable section design should be adopted.

Capacity Spectrum

This study proposes a capacity spectrum Method (CSM)-based procedure to estimate the maximum seismic performance of steel buildings passively controlled with bilinear oil dampers. In the proposed CSM, the maximum seismic response of a building was estimated, in the acceleration-displacement response spectrum, as the intersection between the capacity curve and the damping-adjusted demand curves, using the equivalent linearization method. The building equivalent damping ratio was determined by the sum of the inherent damping, and the square root of sum of squares (SRSS) of the hysteretic damping and the viscous damping of the supplemental oil devices. The calculation steps of the proposed CSM are explained in detail based on the equivalent single degree of freedom (ESDOF) system, and its accuracy was examined by comparison with time history analysis (THA) results. Two model steel buildings of 4 and 10 stories, uniformly equipped with oil dampers along the height, were subjected to six selected earthquake ground motions scaled to be compatible with Level-2 earthquakes, as defined in the Japanese Building Standard Law. The seismic performance of the buildings was estimated by the proposed CSM procedure and compared with the results of nonlinear THA in terms of the maximum story displacements and the shear forces. It was observed that the proposed CSM scheme provided a satisfactory accuracy to assess the maximum nonlinear response of steel buildings passively controlled with oil dampers.

According to the seismic demand spectra form the code for seismic design of buildings, seismic performances of eccentrically braced steel frames (EBF) in frequently, fortification and seldom occurred different intensity earthquakes were evaluated by the Capacity Spectrum Method (CSM). The capacity curves derived from base force-top displacement curves of structures subjected to the lateral seismic load of seismic codes were obtained from pushover analysis by applying sap2000 software and transformed to the spectrum curves, seismic performance were evaluated according to the intersection between the seismic demand spectra and the capacity spectrum. Seismic performances of 15 EBFs designed according to the Chinese design codes were evaluated by CSM. The certain ductility and displacement capacity of EBF in accordance with the China corresponding design codes are shown and some reference is suggested.
